Mate, are you serious?? Or do you just lack common sense??!!! XX

The above was in reponse to the second part of your query. Whether it's worth the money, that depends what you want to use the card for. It's definitely not worth spending on a 6800GT if you intend to play PACMAN

can i play games in LAPTOP?

Current best buy for 10.5 to 11.5k is the GeForce 6600 GT.

If you're strapped for cash try Geforce 6600 Vanilla at less than 8k.

ROLFMAO.....Dude thats like askin "Is it worth Buying an Alienware Rig.....Du-Uh??"
Dude a 6600Gt goes in the likes of Comparison with Ati Radeon 9800Pro,Whereas the Geforce 6800Gt compete's with the likes of Ati Radeon X800Pro.Now Do you feel any difference in the Architecture of Ati Radeon 9800pro and X800 pro Graphics card????? The Answer is "Yes,A Big Diff"
Thats exactly the case with the Geforce Hierarchy,as The 6800Gt Is a High-End Card Placed above 6600Gt.

hey guys i am in a confusion that whether i should buy geforce 6600 gt agp card or i should spend the money on buying a console like ps2. coz the game on the consoles are fully optimised for it and run without any hickups. ge force 6600 gt is a very good card but is it futureproof??????? i know console and pc can't be compared but if its about gaming there is confusion.

Yup Nvidia has a got a 6200 128 and 256MB 8X versions but AFAIK they are not currently available in India yet.Although the PCI-E version does retail at around 4k Approx.

Possibly the PCI-E one Compares to the Ati Radeon X300 Card (SE) and X600 PCI-E Series of ATI but the Agp one(6200) is said to have more set of features and is a Great performer.

Nope i Dun think so.There are Very Little chances of you finding it,as its a relatively a new card.

I say if you got Good PC specs than its advisable you better go for the 6600gt as it will definetly be worth an upgrade as the PS2's graphics are showing its aging Attire Also Go for the Ps2 Only in case you are fully into gaming and nothing else.The 6600Gt will be somewhat future proof for some time now but the PS2 will last for say another year i.e. until PS3 dosent invade and Wipe it out

Oh come on yaar then thats common sense for you as well....This is probably the Top notch card in the 6 series of Current Nvidia High-End cards and Performs Like a Breeze even at high settings in Games like Doom 3 and Hl2

Dude I Dun know which game you are talking about But AFAIK The 6600GT Washes out The 9800Pro is all major games Benchmarks.Here check out the Review and Head-To-Head Comparison on 6600GT (Oh Yea 128MB Version) with 9800Pro and u'll know what margin it has.
http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=2277&p=3
Plus it dosent matter if the Card is 128MB or 256MB,its the core on which the card is bulit and Many other things which contribute to its performance.
Btw dont ever think that a 6800GT (Both 128MB and 256MB) will ever fall behind with the 9800pro or for that matter any of the 9xxx Series likes,As Its in a totally different league Kiddo.

[akshayt]

in some games r9800pro > g6600gt , in some more or less equal,in some looses and in some like pop and doom3 it severly looses.

overall , g6600gt > r9800pro

[harshagarwal]

hey plz tell which of the folln graphic card is better

nVidia 6600(plain) 256MB AGP
nVidia 6600GT 128MB AGP
nVidia 6600 128MB PCI-E
nVidia 6600GT 128MB PCI-E


also tell their prices.

i want to buy one so plz help me.

thanx in advance

[geek_rohit]

The 6600GT is a lot better than the plain 6600. And the PCI is better than the AGP version though there isn't much of a difference in the performance. The GT is available around 12k.

[akshayt]

what are your purposes with the card , with 6k you can only get radeon 9600 128mb as best buy, i think so

don't go for 64bit or se versions.

of the abov crds,128mb geforce 6600gt was best,there is no 6600 agp and you will always prefer newere pci-e to agp

The 6600GT 128Mb is the best of the lot, however for the pci-express version u will need a mobo that supports pci-e or else you can go for the agp version.

@mAYHEM: If u want a PCI card then u can get a fx5200 for arnd 4k i think.
